How to run SHINE

We love the idea of many groups across the UK and Ireland running SHINE at the same time, encouraging one another and sharing stories of what is happening. However, we understand that a specific month may not suit everyone, so please do not feel restricted. Simply pick dates that work for you and your group.

The selected month this year:

November

SCHOOL GROUP?

Running SHINE is actually really easy. Register your details and access the full digital package. Meet as a team and plan how to make the 3 weeks as interesting as possible. Invite friends to be part of the 3-week experience.

Our new Equip Series can also be used to help inspire your group into action.

Ideas:

  • Make your own Ice Cream Bowl week

  • Chocolate fountain week

  • Pizza party week

  • Special guest week

CHURCH YOUTH GROUP?

The SHINE film series is also ideal for church groups. The same principles apply to using SHINE in a school setting. Plan together with your young people and decide how you can create 3 weeks of fun to invite their school friends too.


 

“The videos are very in touch with reality. They spoke to the young people in a way that other materials did not.”

— School Teacher, Ireland

“I am so delighted by SHINE… what an opportunity to make an impact in the lives of pupils in the school.”

— School Teacher, N. Ireland

 
 

“One pupil described running Shine and said that one of the difficulties they faced was 'managing the number of students and finding a space big enough!’”
